[. . . ] Switch off your PC and all connected peripheral devices such as your printer and monitor. Leave the AC power cable connected for the time being, so that your computer is still grounded. Touch the metal chassis at the rear of the PC to ground and to discharge static. Remove the cover from the case of your PC. When selecting the PCI slot, note that TV cards should not be plugged into PCI slot 1 in conjunction with an AGP graphics card because PCI slot 1 very frequently is assigned the same interrupt as the AGP slot. This would give both cards the same interrupt, which can lead to crashes or performance impairment during operation!The numbers assigned to the PCI slots are listed in your motherboard manual. Carefully remove the card from its packaging and pick it up by the edges with one hand while your other hand ideally is touching a metal part of the PC. This will ensure that your body is completely discharged via your computer without damaging the TV card. Align the holder at the rear of the TV card in the expansion slot in such a way that the card's connectors are directly in line with the slot's socket. Push the TV card firmly into the slot, ensuring good contact. Fasten the TV card with an appropriate screw. Reconnect the antenna cable, the AC power cable as well as all other cables. Make sure that your speakers are set to low volume. Switch your computer on again to begin installing the software.
